Str8Shooter, that Longines is a magnificent watch. It is a classier version of the very common Rolex Sub Mariner....

I've been wearing a Chase-Durer Pilot Commander daily for the past 7 years, but my holy grail of watches is the Breitling Navitimer. Not much else comes close in my opinion.

The Navitimer is one of those watches you either love or hate. Years ago when Breitling was in financial do-do they sold the rights to the watch and that is why you have all these copy-cat versions. Personally I find the style a little much and way too busy. it's certainly a very fine watch.

I agree they are busy on the style front, especially if they have a flight computer bezel. Personally I wouldn't buy a watch for daily wear that didn't have one. Not primarily for the functionality, its really more that "the shoe fits" Originally Posted by thebigspendur

Agreed! I've got a great Citizen Skyhawk chronometer , atomic watch and charges itself via sunlight, never need a new battery! Originally Posted by Sunbird

One day, maybe a nice Tag or Rolex, that is if I ever stop buying razors....

Check out Sinn, they really specialize in aviation style watches and have a navitimer clone.
